DoCoMo FOMA Subscribers Top 1 Million
October 2, 2003
NTT DoCoMo announced that the number of subscribers to the 3G FOMA service
nationwide passed the 1 million mark as of yesterday, two years after
launch of the service.
DoCoMo has striven to improve handset quality, lengthen battery life
and expand the area of network coverage. It has trimmed handset weight
to a sleek 109g and beefed up battery standby time to approx. 310 hours.
To cost-effectively expand coverage area, the company has developed micro-base
stations for its FOMA service, and now provides network availability to
96% of the nation's population. Overall network accessibility will be
further expanded to 99% of the population by the end of March 2004. To
facilitate highly advanced network services inside buildings and underground
malls as well, DoCoMo plans to have a total of 1,600 indoor micro-base
stations in place by the end of March 2004.
This winter and next spring, DoCoMo intends to unveil even more advanced
FOMA handsets, incorporating high-volume i-appli enabling users to enjoy
especially rich mobile content. With ever greater user-friendliness, the
company also expects an increasing number of subscribers to make full
use of their videophone and videomail capabilities.
